The Casa Del Mandolino Napoletano, as part of the season of events planned for autumn 2020, hosts this weekend two events of great emotional intensity and depth, offering two shows that represent two different artistic expressions, dance and concert of plectrum instruments, also belonging to different cultures, but similar in respect of tradition and cultural roots.
Friday 2nd October, Marie Thérèse Sitzia on stage with the Butoh Dance show “Messa All'Incanto”
Score for (…) bodies. First movement. The threshold of waiting underlies the work of investigation. Small actions, framed in a different light, placed in an Enchantment. Concept and Dance: Marie-Thérèse Sitzia.
Sunday 4 October the DivaQuartetPlectrum in “Mandolinando”, a concert of plectrum instruments, classical Neapolitan repertoire.
The Quartet aims to enhance the chamber music literature for plectrum ensembles, both from the classical tradition and from Neapolitan music; furthermore, it experiments with the performance of pieces belonging to the classical and operatic repertoire, using specific transcriptions. The DivaPlectrumQuartet aims to fully include the mandolin, a precious and historical Neapolitan instrument, in the category of classical instruments: in fact, the mandolin is frequently associated with a folkloristic and popular image of the city of Naples, depriving it of its intrinsic and ancient musical value.
The band, composed of First Mandolin: Adolfo Tronco, Second Mandolin: Massimiliano del Gaudio, Mandola: Roberto Padula, Guitar: Giovanni Leonetti, will pay homage to Raffaele Calace, a great concert lute player applauded throughout the world who studied and perfected the mandolin making it the advanced instrument it is today, and will perform a repertoire of milestones of Neapolitan classical music.
The Quartet collaborates on a permanent basis with the Neapolitan Mandolin Academy.
